UPDATE:
Still feeling so grateful after such a wonderful event. Thank you to everyone who showed up, supported, and made it so special.
A heartfelt thank you to Brie Taralson (right side, kneeling next to me in the front row), owner and founder of Lykke Books. Your passion for creating a welcoming, thoughtful space for community and stories truly shines. It was an honor to be part of it.
